Viggo Mortensen’s “Good” has itself another poster, this one with a softer touch, and another trailer. In the film, Mortensen plays a liberal German professor whose moral cowardice leads to his involvement with the Nazi war machine and Auschwitz.

There’s obviously his role as the unnamed father in the adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s “The Road,” then there’s his leading role as a hired gun in the Old West come to clean up a lawless old town in the Ed Harris-directed “Apaloosa” (Renee Zellwegger plays the woman who threatens to tear bff’s Harris and Viggo apart) and finally there’s “Good,” which stars Mortensen as liberal German professor whose moral cowardice leads to his involvement with the Nazi war machine and Auschwitz.
